Hailing from the Los Angeles suburb of Cerritos, Channel 3 was a pioneering member of the South California hardcore scene - a scene made up largely of disillusioned teens who found that music was their only viable alternative to hanging out in front of the local mini-mart. The band’s first full length LP, 1982’s Fear Of Life (released in the UK as I’ve Got A Gun on No Future) was an immediate classic and the band soon began playing to large crowds at home and abroad and even enjoyed some chart success. On the wave of this overnight popularity came their second LP, 1983’s After The Lights Go Out - further solidifying their unique sound and making its indelible mark on hardcore history.
